  UCLA has a horrible defense and coach Kelly is a bad coach.
  
  OSU has a good offense. They are second in the conference in yards. Moving the ball on UCLA may not mean a lot, but they have been racking up yards all season. On the other hand, their defense is suspect.
  
  Cal has a great defense, but they only play 4 or 5 D linemen. Utah should be able to wear them down. Cal has no offense to speak of, especially with the backup QB.
  
  Oregon did not pass well against the Cal D. I think we can control the Cal game with a strong running game.
  
  UW’s defense is vulnerable. They allowed 300 yards in the first half. Their running game is not nearly as good as previous years.
  
  It’s tough to get much from the CU – Arizona game. Nice win for UA on the road, but CU was missing some critical players. Tate throwing for over 400 yards is a little concerning. These are two teams we have to beat.

  UCLA is officially the worst team in the Pac-12.

  I agree with most of what you said.
  
  UCLA is just awful. Kelly made some awful decisions that created problems for them throughout the game. Going for it on 4th down on your side of the field early when you haven’t been moving the ball just creates problems. It kept them in a catch up mode the whole game, leading to more mistakes
  
  OSU has moved the ball but I don’t think they have played a strong defense. They don’t seem to be getting a huge amount more than the average yards allowed by the opposing defense. 30-50 yards more on 3 of the games i checked and 50 less on one.
  
  I think what I have seen tells me that Utah has the team that can and probably should beat almost everyone in the division. I think that Arizona and Colorado looked like bigger challenges than I previously expected, but the game was weird and it is hard to tell how good either of them really are.
  
  The way that Oregon and Washington played it looks like they would both be beatable by our style of play on a neutral field in the championship game.
